SEAT - How to stay fit even on long journeys

Driving a car is fun - especially in the new SEAT models with state-of-the-art safety equipment. But especially those who are not used to long distances, or not so much anymore, should not only rely on the safety assistants, but also think about their own responsibility and pay attention to a few things when going on tour. SEAT has put together a few tips for long journeys that are good for safety, fitness and concentration behind the wheel and go beyond the classic "Take a break!". Prehydration: fuel for the body It is now common knowledge that sufficient water should be drunk throughout the day. Owl or lark: the right time window Regardless of a reasonable water balance, the body's performance varies throughout the day. Staying fit without getting out of the car An extensive break every two hours or every 200 kilometers - the classic recommendation for long distances. But stop once: look for a nice place For the selected breaks, you should plan a 20-minute stay. It will be all the more relaxing if the rest stop or place for the break has been selected beforehand and offers all kinds of amenities. Well provided for: tolls, snacks and a parking lot You can do your nerves a bit of good even before you start your journey. Especially on unfamiliar routes, it makes sense to have the right cash ready for toll roads. Always take turns Driving one of the ultra-modern and dynamic SEAT models is fun, of course. Nevertheless, if circumstances permit, all occupants are helped if there are other drivers inside. Who sits where? The right seat for your child Where does who actually sit in the car? For a stress-free trip with the highest safety aspects, you should consider where and how the little ones sit before a long trip. Keeping the kids occupied The long haul to a vacation or to visit relatives presents an unusual challenge, especially for the patience of young children.
